Sin City’s mega-tycoon Steve Wynn is lining up a huge-money deal to lure David Beckham and Gordon Ramsay into a joint venture at one of his hotels.
The businessman owns the Wynn resort – one of the most luxurious hotels in Vegas – and has his heart set on opening a sports bar and grill on the complex with the British stars.
Gordon already owns three places on The Strip – his BurGR joint at Planet Hollywood, his steak house at Paris and his Pub & Grill at Caesars Palace.
I’m told Steve has wanted the chef to join forces with him for years, then after Becks announced his retirement from footie, he floated the idea of an eatery endorsed by both of them to his Vegas team.
Gordon and David are already going into the food business together in the UK – their first joint restaurant, Union Street Cafe, is slated to open near London’s trendy Borough Market in September.
A source said: “The Strip has never seen such fierce competition for food, but Gordon’s places are full seven nights a week. He’s one of the best chefs in the world, so it’s only natural that Steve feels he should have a place in his hotel as it’s the most luxurious on The Strip.
“When you add David Beckham’s global status into the mix it has the potential to be the most talked about restaurant in Vegas.
“Steve Wynn hasn’t cared about money since he became a billionaire after rejuvenating The Strip in the early Nineties.
“His ambition is quite simply to have the best hotels in the world. He spent more than £2billion doing that with the Wynn Resort and thinks Gordon and David can make it even better.”
Sounds like a “Wynn-er” to me!
